I have the exact same shoulder and excriating gas pain. It's really miserable. I am 7 days post op and I sure hope it clears up fast because I cant take much more. Hope you feel better soon!

Sleeved on the 19th too. Was feeling fantastic until last night when I got him with horrible gas pains. From my left shoulder all around my middle, sides and back. Pain was so intense I couldn't hardly move. Continuing into today, though not as severe. Does anyone know if this gas pain comes and goes? It just shocked me because I thought I was through with it. Sure hope it's not a sign of something more serious.

congrats!! im waiting to go into my surgery right now. looking forward to being on the other side!!!

Shelly: Where are you having your surgery?

DeeJack: Im at the Marriott in Tijuana. Heading to Mi Doctor at 1:30 for surgery with Dr. Diaz. Getting tired of the wait. I expected surgery to be in the morning. Long time to be on clear liquids and now nothing all day. Rough!! Feeling weak.

I'm finally starting to get SCARED. For the surgery itself, of course, but also because I haven't exactly been flawless with my pre-op diet. Major sugar addiction is causing all kinds of grief! Good luck everyone! You'll be in my prayers.

Thanks, Shelly! I'll post as soon as I can after the surgery.

I'm 5 days out too and my diet is similar: Protein shake for brkfst and lunch then 3oz. lean protein for dinner with small veggie. It's crazy hard, I agree. Who is your doctor?

For the life of me, I don't understand how you can be stuck. They remove 75% of your stomach and you can barely eat. How can you NOT lose weight? Stalls with gastric sleeve make no sense to me.

What doctor, Jim?

Shelly -- I would love a copy of your spreadsheet if you're willing to share. My email is: lschmeeckle@cox.net. Thank you and best of luck!

Super excited here!! March 19th at Mi hospital w/ Dr. Diaz. Where is everyone having their surgery? I see DeeJack and I will be at the same place. Anyone else?

Amy -- when will you be there? I'm flying in Mar. 18th for surgery on the 19th w/ Dr. Diaz at Mi Doctor. Christy is my coordinator too. Getting super excited!

Me too. It must be new.
